To understand overall situation in technology development industrial sector, we conducted first countrywide study Kazakhstan. In this paper, present results of large survey on use ‘green technologies’ companies every region coun...

Cette recherche a pour but d’explorer les facteurs d’acceptation de la Fintech chez seniors. Différents courants théoriques traitent variables qui influencent l’acceptation des innovations technologiques. Le modèle choisi au niveau cette étude est inspiré du technologie (MAT ou, plus fréquemment, TAM Technology Acceptance Model). Notre inclut l’utilité perçue, facilité d’utilisation, l’accessib...

The present paper thoroughly explores second-best efficient allocations in an adverse selection insurance economy. We start from a natural extension of the classical model, assuming less than perfect risk perceptions. We propose first and second welfare theorems, by means of which we describe efficiencyenhancing policies. Notions of weak and strong adverse selection are promising for interpreti...

The Division of Labour, Worker Organisation, and Technological Change The model developed in this paper explains differences in the division of labour across firms as a result of computer technology adoption. We find that changes in the division of labour can result both from reduced production time and from improved communication possibilities. The first shifts the division of labour towards a...

New products and practices take time to diffuse, a fact that is often attributed to some form of heterogeneity among potential adopters. People may realize different benefits and costs from the innovation, or have different beliefs about its benefits and costs, hear about it at different times, or delay in acting on their information. This paper analyzes the dynamics arising from different sour...

This paper extends the literature on technology adoption by introducing a distinction between technological breakthroughs (‘innovations’) and the engineering re/nements (‘improvements’) that follow such a breakthrough. Firms do not necessarily wait for a future technological breakthrough, but instead have an incentive to delay the adoption of a new technology until it is su2ciently advanced. We...

Using 1985–1999 data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (GSOEP) to analyze wages we confirm the hypothesis that existing computer wage premiums are determined by individual ability or other unobserved individual characteristics rather than by productivity effects. While a rather large personal computer (PC) wage premium was found in the crosssectional regressions even after the inclusio...
